When I read that this story was based on a real life serial killer, I had to see it and I was not disappointed.
Larry Lee Ranes is the actual killer and he is named Bobby here and is played to the hilt by Jacob Elordi. His mannerisms are similar to those of the Charles Starkweather character in Badlands with Martin Sheen as the James Dean type of character.
Jim is on the road with his show biz chimp and he picks up the youthful and innocent looking hitchhiker(Elordi), not realizing that his passenger is on the run after a few brutal murders.
The violent acts are briefly shown in flashbacks and the film is more a character study than a true crime story.
The two leads have perfect chemistry and He Went That Way is a solid 8/10.
